An elderly New York bus monitor who was berated and bullied by a group of middle school students has received more than $132,000 in online donations.

Karen Huff Klein, 68, is seen in a 10-minute viral video attempting to ignore the verbal attacks by students from Athena Middle School in Greece, N.Y. Children on the bus hurl repeated insults and threats at the grandmother, calling her fat and at one point suggesting that her children commit suicide.

But donations have since poured in for the grandmother in hopes that she’ll take a “vacation of a lifetime,” according to fundraising site indiegogo.com. As of early Thursday, a total of $132,306 had been received for Klein.
